Schick

 

Type: Shaving Machines

Manufacture :   USA

​

Col. Jacob Schick, an American (and later Canadian) entrepreneur, was patenting the first electric shaver.

​

This first concept, relying on a shaving head powered by a bulky external motor, wasn’t exactly practical and also required the use of both hands.

​

Later iterations addressed these shortcomings by fitting all the components into a compact design.

​

This allowed Schick to achieve massive commercial success, selling more than 1.5 million shavers until his death in 1937.
